Backout - Dead Memories

Post by gwaddict »

So after not hearing back from this guy for close to a week and trying to keep the deal together I am forced to post this backout report on Dead memories. I will be adding him to my not to bother with ever again list. Hopefully someone knows his real name / address cause I never got any of that information, which I find to be somewhat dodgy. So he will probably just change screen names and keep on with these shenanigans, hopefully he is just a deadbeat and not a con artist. What ever the case I definately would not ship to him first.

Sorry I am a little bit confused, is the trade going to happen? you have written

**1 drop pod with CF markings- £18- Youll be getting a nib one
**5 metal sternguard-£25- again new set
5 metal vanguard-£25- new set

that would be fine to send for my Khador items that we previously discussed. I am patient just want to be kept in the loop. My other buyer/trader already found his items somewhere else so that ship has now sailed. Let me know if in fact the deal is going to happen and a rough estimate of when you plan to ship your portion.

**1 drop pod with CF markings- £18- Youll be getting a nib one
**5 metal sternguard-£25- again new set
**1 FW vindicator-£30- have 3 of these in total
5 metal vanguard-£25- new set
2 rhino`s/ whirlwinds/ razorbacks-£40- have multiple ones of these
3 scout bikers- £18- have another6 in total
thunderfire cannon-£30- have 2 of these
1 land raider redemer- FW cf doors- £45 have 2 of these

Yeah its a bit of a mess at the minute. Unfortunately some people clearly didn`t read what my thread said originally when i said this is not all my stuff listed, Its a portion of it. I do have multiples of a lot of items, ie the cannon and drop pods etc..Try collecting for 14 + years and working with GW for 4 of them and see if you know everything you have. In between moving and having limited internet its been hell. For the minute take what trades you can get cos i`m gonna have to sort out some issues. In all likelyhood I`ll probably not be on here and will be trying to deal with people via my other sources ie e mail and what not. Sorry about the mess. If i can get it sorted before you do trade then il get back to you. If you give me your e mail i can discuss trades further as i said im not likely to be here as ive also heard some of the people within my back out traders bit arent the best of traders themselvesRe: Warmachine for Space Marines

Howdy,
I noticed mention of you in the backout forums. Wanted to touch base and ensure that our deal was going through. I have passed on others peoples offer to purchase my items on the assumption that we had a deal finalized. Please get back to me quickly otherwise I will have to assume that you are backing out of our deal.

Okay, so now we have at least three people that he promised to trade the same items to, all around the same time frame. As I said in the other post, I do have his full name and address, but I hesitate to make it public until I'm sure the trade is a bust. I haven't received a reply in 8 days, and I'm going to wait another 6. I do hope his computer issues are genuine.

I would definately not wait, and would post a backout report asap. Doesnt sound like this guy is all that trustworthy. Also posting his name and address will protect other bartertown users if and when he just switches his username, civic duty and all that. :-D

I'm pretty sure that this guy scammed me as well. The trade was totally finalized and addresses exchanged with a shipping date agreed upon. Neither of us had trade rating at the time so we were just going to ship more or less simultaneously. Computer problems or not there is no reason why he couldn't have sent the stuff.

shipping addresses have been XXXXXX'd out.

No it should be ok. Just ship to me whatever the most economical method is and I will do the same. No sense in spending a lot of money shipping a trade.

I'll just need your shipping address. I will ship Thursday as well.

Yeah that sounds good for me.

So the trade will be

Goreshade and Deathwalker $13
2x Nightwretches $18
Bile Thralls x2 $10
Defiler $9

FOR
4 Chaos Terminators, 1 with Chainfist and Heavy flamer, the rest (3) with 2x Lightning claws.

I can ship this week sometime, USPS priority should be pretty cheap since it is not a lot of stuff.

My Shipping Address is

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Let me know what your shipping address is

K cool,

so for the terminators and the bits to set them up like that, lets just work off quasi-retail values since they're used but also you are throwing in like extra bits so lets call it like $50 (sinice a box of 5 termi's can be had for like $50)

So for Cryx I can give you some combination of stuff, and I'll set some prices so you can decide

Goreshade and Deathwalker $13
2x Nightwretches $18
Defiler $9
Necrotech + Scrap Thrall $13
Bile Thralls (3) $15 (or $5 each)
Necrosurgeon and Stitch Thralls $14

So you can have kind of a lot of that stuff. Like I said, I would trade ~$50 for ~$50 so however you wanna do it.

The terminators i can do that with no problem.

Re: Trades

Yeah my interest then would be primarily in the Terminators, specifically the Heavy Flamer/Chainfist guy, The 2x Lightning Claws Guy, And the other guy with a lightning claw and the Combi bolter.

If you have the spare bits my ideal terminator squad would have 3 Terminators with 2x Lightning claws, and 1 with a chainfist and heavy flamer.

I'm also interested in the 10 CSMs, but not as much.

Let me know if you think we can work something out for some of these Cryx.

The WB shoulder pads are easy to remove if youd not want them.

The 10 that are somewhat painted have boltguns. 1 has a melta gun and the other a flamer. The champion has a combi bolter and powe sword. The terminators are armed all different
Terminator 1: twin lightning claws
Terminator 2: lightning claw and combi bolter
Terminator 3: combi bolter and power maul
Terminator 4: combi bolter and power axe
Terminator 5: Combi melta and power axe
Terminator 6: combi bolter and powerfist
Terminator 7: Heavy flamer and chainfist
Terminator 8: combi bolter and power axe
Terminator 9: COmbi bolter an dpower axe
Terminator 10: combi flamer and power maul

I also have a tonne of spare terminator weapons as well as a squad of new thousand suns, plague marines, obliterators x8 and loads more

Hey there,

Yeah I would be willing to ship internationally. I'm interested in Chaos Space Marines, but not with word bearer shoulder pads. You have 10 there that you say are half painted, how are they built, do you have any extra bits, and what would you want for them?

Also, you have chaos terminators, do you have any with 2x Lightning Claws? Heavy Flamers, or Reaper Autocannons?

Gordo, start your own DB/BO trade report. Adding on to someone else's thread is just plain tacky and doesn't get the emphasis the issue needs.The more threads on the guy, the more people will think twice about trading with him (hopefully).
